Folk’s Future in Doubt After Shank

The Cowboys’ patience with Nick Folk was already running thin but it may be warn out after he missed a 24-yard field goal attempt with 2:16 to play. “I’ll look at that as early as tonight and tomorrow,” owner and general manager Jerry Jones said. Folk made a 44-yarder with four seconds left in the first half to give the Cowboys a 17-3 lead, but missed his third field goal try of less than 30 yards in his career when it mattered most. “Just hit it right off my heel,” Folk said, adding that it was difficult to watch the Saints’ final drive, “but we ended up getting the win and if it came down to it later in the game I would’ve been ready for it.”
